I am from the United States and live in the Netherlands. I earned a Masters of Teaching in the USA and started teaching English online, which has allowed me to meet people from all over the world. When I'm not working, I enjoy playing Nintendo games, embroidering, rock climbing, and reading. I even read 72 books last year!
Does my profile say "online" and you want a lesson NOW? Message me and, if I'm available, I can send you a lesson invitation and we can start the lesson as soon as possible!
Pets and babies can come to class, too :)
Ich als Lehrkraft
I earned a Masters of Teaching degree and then a TEFL certification. I've been teaching English to teenage and adult language learners for several years now and my students describe me as supportive, responsive, and empathetic.
I take my job seriously but I am also relaxed in general. You can be certain that our classes will be both informative and entertaining. My goal is to make students feel confident in their skills so they can improve more easily, which I do by making class welcoming, safe, and informative.
**My lessons are for intermediate to advanced English learners. They are best for teenagers and adults.**
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
Each class is customized for the student, depending on their interests and what they need to improve. My classes focus on grammar, vocabulary, and other subjects. Classes allow you to speak and use the language effectively. I can give homework and we can discuss answers in our next class.
* Lessons can be booked 1 month in advance
**My lessons are for intermediate to advanced English learners. They are best for teenagers and adults.**
***If you cancel a lesson within 24 hours of class time or miss the class, it will not be refunded or rescheduled. By scheduling a lesson, you agree to pay for that time.*

Zertifikat verifiziert
Professional Educator's License - North Carolina State Board of Education - 2010The Professional Educator's License from the NC State Board of Education enables me to teach students (junior high and high school) in the State of North Carolina. Additionally, I'm qualified to teach language arts (English and reading) when you combine the certificate with the English courses I completed at University.
I highly recommend Shelley as an English teacher, especially for TOEFL preparation.
She is one of the few teachers who are genuinely interested in teaching you. She is a true professional, very organized, and we don't waste a single minute of our lessons.
Shelley uses well-organized notes, which are very convenient for me to memorize what we were discussing and the vocabulary we learned.
She recommends a lot of helpful websites and materials for pronunciation and grammar exercises.
Shelley points out the details and grammar I can work on by myself between our lessons. It is so nice and easy to speak with her and ask her questions, as she is a kind and polite teacher!
